I'm disappointed in myself. You guessed it! I stopped going to the gym. No, I haven't given up. I've lost a few inches but all the time I've allowed to past I could have made real progress.
However, the past is the past. I had a view of myself from the back on an FB video and omg! I'm going to start slow slow slow. My problem was I was still trying to do things the way I did when I was exercising routinely. I'm not that person anymore.
I have to let go of the 26 year old mindset and accept that I'm 48 and overweight. I'm not slim, but I'm still attractive. I have to learn to be attractive in my present state while working towards significant weight loss
I am losing the weight for myself to be healthy, so I've got that part secure. But I really need to figure out what works for this new body.
A few years ago I had a complete hysterectomy so my body's different. I don't know this body or what makes it respond. So, I'm starting off with a very tiny goal, drink 1/2 my body weight in water. I currently weigh 260 so I'm looking at 130oz daily. I can do it.
I feel great and am comfortable, this is the problem too. One thing that has changed is I'm a big sweet eater now. I crave sugar.
Til next time, keep the faith and take the first step ☺️
